I've been a wake for a long time; too long for someone that has to work today. My mind flows from work, to Scrunch, to home, to balance, to home improvements, to pups, to finances, to the meaning of security, to rewarding work, rewarding life, what gives meaning, what are my values, avoiding creating definitions based on lack or perhaps trying to define based on abundance -- seems like an endless stream of consiousness that runs too fast to ever really get a look and nearly dizzying. If only I could dip a cup in any idea as it runs by and sit and contemplate it for while or maybe even have a sip of the more refreshing ones.
We meet late today, but I have plenty of work to do between now and then. With a heave and a ho, it's time for me to get out of the stream and get my day started.
Heigh Ho!
ReplyDeleteyour thoughts remind me of something i read by pema chodron, from her newest book, "taking the leap". practicing "pausing" or thought-free moments.
